The 24-year-old who plays for Rhode Island FC in the USA flashed a shot wide after being set up by Fitina Omborenga, one of the missed goal scoring opportunities for Amavubi in the game.

"It is always an honour to be called up to the national team but it is also good to score because we had chance. Every opportunity to play for Rwanda is special. I know I am representing not just my country.” Kwizera said before flying back to the USA on Wednesday.

"I should have done better and scored a goal, and I know that. I don’t really want to miss that chance again,” he added.

He pointed out that the team might also have been just unlucky, but promised to work hard and give their best in the upcoming games.

Rwanda now has 2 points from the two matches it has played so far in the AFCON qualifiers.
